The front
and back measure 9-1/2" x 7-1/4"
The peak for the front and back is 45°

There are two pieces for the roof.
Measure and cut a 7" x 6-1/2" and a 6-1/2" x 6-1/4"

The two sides and the floor
are all the same size 5-3/4" x 4" The floor
has 45° cuts in each corner for ventilation.

I cut the pieces of the birdhouse with
a jig-saw. I used a straight edge ruler as a guide to get a straight
cut.

Cut the birdhouse pieces and assemble using 1-1/4 inch finishing
nails. Use a spade bit to drill the entrance hole. The location and
the size of the entrance hole will depend on the type of bird you
are trying to attract.

Start with the front or back birdhouse
pieces, and attach the sides.

Nail the front and back to the sides

The floor will be about half an inch up
from the bottom of the birdhouse. Pre drill some holes on the sides
and to the floor.

Now screw in some 1-5/8 inch deck screws. To clean out the birdhouse
just unscrew the floor.

Attach the roof with 1-1/4 inch finishing
nails. Start by nailing the short piece, then the larger piece. The
larger piece will overlap the smaller piece.

I screwed in eye screws in the roof and
added a chain. I also added a perch this is optional. To add a perch,
cut a 3 inch piece of dowel 3/8 inch in diameter, drill a 3/8 inch
hole, add glue to the hole and attach dowel.
